WTM’s PLAYER PROFILE |
| The Pirates drafted Dunham from the same school as second round pick Matt Gorski. Dunham is a draft-eligible sophomore, so he has two years of eligibility left and could be tough to sign. He was arguably Indiana’s best all-around hitter in 2019, putting up a 310/434/542 line with eight home runs. He played only sparingly the previous year and didn’t play every day in 2019 until partway into the season, so he may have hit his way into regular duty. |
